Innovation Engineering sold - new company, new plane the Scepter introduced. Slipstream industries has taken over the production and manufacturing of the Innovation Engineering line of aircraft.

The Genesis, SkyQuest, Revelation, Flybouy floats, as well as the Quickfix modifications will now be produced by Slipstream.

Slipstream also introduced a new single place ultralight design at Sun N Fun the Scepter.

The Scepter is a fabric and tube construction aircraft, similar to the Revelation, and in fact many of the parts are interchangeable, such as lift struts, tail booms, and tail section.

The kit is available with two different styles of wing, Stits covered which will take about 100 hours to build or Dacron sail cloth style which will take about half that time.

The kit can be purchased in component packages, fuselage, wing tail feathers, then a power plant. The kit is a bolt, rivet together style of construction, no welding, bending or fabricating of parts is required.

According to the factory the wing design has been changed on all models as of January of 1999. The new wing is stronger and more efficient.
 
The control system used on the Scepter, are the same as the Revelation, rudder pedals with a "steering yoke" - which is quite familiar to many general aviation pilots flying Cessna 150's etc. While there was not a craft flying at the show, factory representatives report that the proto type stalls around 25 mph,  with a cruise speed of 60 mph, with a take off roll of between 50 and 75 feet when powered by a 447 Rotax.
